The 1st of November.  I am living in a limbo state and I hate it. Just waiting for it to be next Thursday when I see Andrew. I'm just trying to find ways to fill each day so they don't feel so wasted. The thing is, I don't think I'm going to be able to mentally move out of this state until my arm is fixed. And I'm beginning to absorb the thought that most of my Christmas jumpers will be staying in the wardrobe because they just won't fit. 

This morning, I wrote up a blog post, after saying good morning to the kittens. We've finally been able to flea-spray them today so I have mainly stroked them through the bars. 

After lunch, it was binge-watching The Blacklist and crochet. I finished and assembled my first gnome, the smallest one. I have now started the middle one, and I am very much looking forward to seeing them together when they're all done. 

I hate all this waiting. Fuuuuck.

The 2nd of November. 

Today has not gone entirely as planned, but not in a bad way. 

I called Black Sheep yesterday to arrange a hair change, and Saskia had a cancellation at one o'clock today, which I said no to because the boiler man was coming and we weren't sure what time he would be done. However, he'd been and gone by the time I got up, so I called to see if the appointment was still available. It was, so that was my afternoon sorted. 

I bade the kittens a good morning, getting them all out for individual cuddles - we can actually let them run around tomorrow which will be interesting. Might have to construct a small fence. Thursday is Riverdale day, so I watched that while I worked on the second gnome's body. 

Had lunch a bit early (so I am starving now) and got down to Black Sheep for one. Annoyingly, I had just missed seeing baby Lulu, but I'm sure I'll get another chance!

I thought we were just going to do the bleach before doing my Christmas hair in a separate appointment. But we did the whole thing today! So, I am now a coppery-gingery tone all over. There are panels that were meant to be gold but in a toning error they've come out dark, so I'm going back to get those corrected next week. 

The 3rd & 4th; Christmas Crafts ahoy!
